This was the case with Word when they developed their tabbed interface, there was no additional work required for existing extensions and there's no reason why LibreOffice couldn't do the same.
Just to reiterate what I've said elsewhere on this issue: if LO were serious about the tabbed interface, then extension developers wouldn't have to make any changes to their extensions, and any extension UI should auto-convert to a tab.
The Tabbed interface is released, but it's certainly not mature. You may disagree with those reasons, but you will have to come up something more substantial than that. We do not make excuses, we provide reasons. The idea behind the extension support was not bad and respect the development resources LibreOffice has.

#Zotero libreoffice update
Thanks you are working on update the LibreOffice Zotero Extension (one of the best extension out there) for Notebookbar I'm the designer of LibreOffice tabbed ui and worked last year together with an gsoc student on make extension support possible for notebookbar layouts. This has literally no implication to Zotero and you support Zotero users that use LibO Tabbed UI. Please consider accepting this commit for the people that use LibO that WANT integration in the Tabbed UI. So please use another excuse for why you guys simply don't accept this commit. I know this because I contributed to its development.
The Tabbed Bar is considered mature and ready and that's why it was released. It's also because the development tools used to make the TabbedBar didn't have development. The classic UI is the default because all LibO documentation is done based on the classic UI. Just to refute the statement that the Tabbed UI is half-baked and that is the reason that the classic UI is still the default. with labels and different sized icons) I don't think we want to make any UI changes for LibreOffice. Until we can make the plugin UI look more like the one in Word (i.e. I personally think that the Tabbed UI mode is still pretty half-baked in its interactions and looks, and it seems that the Document Foundation agrees with me, which is why the classic UI mode is still the default. You can still enable any old-style toolbars in the tabbed interface in LibreOffice and while not conforming to the looks of the tabbed interface, it looks much better overall: If we include a "proper" interface option for the tabbed mode in LibreOffice, we would want it to look closer to what it does in Word. Sadly, icons are currently (LO 6.4) blurry, but this is also the case for normal toolbars.Īlso, there seems to be no way to show icon+text as in other tabs.
